Is this book really meant for students????

This textbook was extremely difficult which only slowed down the learning process. The authors do not communicate well with the reader, it is as if they wrote it for someone who is already an expert in the field.

Strongly discouraged

This well-written and sophisticated text is, unfortunately, also very unclear and eccentric in its explanations and applications. I found the author to be unconcerned with the depiction of truly profound Economical concepts and more concerned with irrelevant fabrications. In this regard, it is nearly a 'loss of more productive resources.' Perhaps this decrease in demand will compensate for increase of supply.

Poorly Written

This book is poorly written. Most students don't read it because it is hard to comprehend. It spends too much time descibing useless examples and not enough time describing true economics.
